Narcissistic Abuse and Toxic Relationship Forum

4 weeks ago

ℹ️🌿 𝗥𝗘𝗩𝗘𝗥𝗦𝗘 𝗣𝗥𝗢𝗝𝗘𝗖𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 ⁉️ 💢🚨💢Before we realize the truth about the narcissist in our lives, we relate to them as if they are normal human beings possessing a conscience, integrity and some degree of self-awareness. We trust their words because we don’t deceive and manipulate people and trust that the people who claim to love us will do the same. We give them the benefit of the doubt because we believe they truly love no one who truly loves us would purposely say or do anything to hurt our feelings and us. We are in essence projecting our good qualities on to them, and when they don’t respond the way we expect a normal person would, we become confused and hurt, question our reality and believe we must be to blame in some way. The problem is that narcissists don’t think, operate or play by the same rules as us, and our failing to recognize this sets us up for manipulation and misery by default.Conversations with a narcissist, especially if you hold opinions about anything that contradict with their opinion of what is the gospel truth, are jam-packed with a barrage of covert manipulation tactics that are intrinsic to the narcissist and entrenched in their personality. They will make you wish you never disagreed with them in the first place and regret that you had ever dared to express your point of view. A simple disagreement will often incite a full-fledged attack on you. Somehow, they manage to twist the conservation, so you wind up feeling like the bad guy/girl, while they assume the role of the innocent victim – of you.𝘙𝘦𝘨𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘍𝘰𝘳 𝘠𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘍𝘙𝘌𝘌 𝘈𝘤𝘤𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘛𝘰 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘖𝘯𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘦,2022 𝘚𝘶𝘳𝘷𝘪𝘷𝘰𝘳 𝘌𝘮𝘱𝘰𝘸𝘦𝘳𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘚𝘶𝘮𝘮𝘪𝘵Visit www.wnaad.comOr Register Here:https://bit.ly/wnaad2022#narcissisticabuse#ifmywoundswerevisible#wnaad#worldnarcissisticabuseawarenessday#gaslighting#narcissism#narcissisticabuserecovery#healingfromtrauma#psychopathy#codependency#projection#coercivecontrol#emotionalabuse ...
